Now that Nebuchadnezzar has had some time to rest, I have found a lot more battle scars on him. He is limping on his right front leg. Found four more scratches to right leg, neck and head.
It looks like he had a fight for his life with a bird of prey. An owl, eagle, or hawk. Weighed him. He is still only 9 pounds, and the birds out here are pretty big. Depending on the bird, they can carry 1.4 to 3 times their weight.
I think if he got caught by a coyote or dog his injuries would have looked a lot different. His injuries are mostly around his head and neck, with a few to his right leg and front right side. Only other things I think it could be is an otter, especially since he was once big mud ball. Probably the fight was out at the pond.
So far he had shown no interest in going on the porch. And he is like a lightening flash trying to get on the porch or outdoors, the moment he hears the door open. But not today.
I pray he learned his lesson. He can't have too many lives left.
